The Perception of Ideal Student based on money based social structure

1. The Perception of Ideal Student based on money based social structure
By Khandaker Sakib Farhad
How we explain about our children as a student is not the issue but how we perceive others is the
main factor. When it comes to schooling, nobody really cares about the results of any of the students
whether he is first or the last in his school but what everybody really cares about is where he studies
and it really means where he studies which means it needs to be a School, College or University of the
highest standard, famous and at the center of the country and if those doesn’t make the criteria then
unfortunately your child is not a good student and if your child is a student of that particular institute
then the margin is so high he won’t fit all the criteria. Now, how is it we all portray an image of a
student in our mind? Subconsciously, it is exactly the same as we see in the movies. That means he
needs to be an Engineer or a Doctor, who is the best in every field in his education life, but shy, having
an innocent face, who rarely looks at girls. Now, when it comes to reality the students who read in a
community school or a rural school are less fortunate in nature who are from poor family background.
It becomes very difficult for them to get enrolled in a good school. Even if they are good in their
education, they all are trademarked as slum boys or villagers. Nobody actually digs in that deep to
find out who is good or bad as we are all under the perception that they are poor and due to that one
day or the other they are soon to be dropouts. If not as soon as they get old, they will engage
themselves in earning which will evidently make them unable to reach social standards. However, the
basic thing the rich parents forget is that most of the good students were the ones who made
themselves good students and most of their parents are from villages. To survive in this world, it was
always the fact that social smartness is also a part of education, not the formal one which is lacking in
their children. But due to struggles they have faced, they make sure to spend all their money to
prepare a perfect education plan for their children by spending more money on them and less on
themselves. So, due to the expense of money the students get enrolled in good institutes, where
education is forced on them ensuring their less involvement in extracurricular activities. We are all
under the perception that if a child is from a good school, he is bound to go to a good college and be a
doctor or engineer. The thing with good schools is that they have a specific teacher for a specific
subject with high pay and the security that if one of the students do bad in their exams their parents
will pay everything to make their children good students, but in the regular schools, one teacher has
to cover more subjects, more classes with less pay and the uncertainty if he fails a children he might
drop his education entirely with no security that any fear can make them concentrate in education
entirely. So, when it comes to assessing the results the good students from good schools get less
marks in their classes, then the poor students from schools. This makes the rich students inferior in
nature due to the family scolding of high expense, then the extrovert nature of poor students as their
parents need to make less expense. It becomes natural that the poor students are more adored by
their parents than the rich students as being responsible not as a good student whereas most good
students face inferiority complex. Due to inferiority complexes, some rich children get more focused
but many of them become rebellious after their puberty. But, in most cases the poor students or the
rural students remain very focused on the needs of their parents as a whole. No, rich children ever
drop out of their school as they know the fact that ultimately everyone will do well from their school,
but whenever a poor child finds out he is not moving anywhere with education, he immediately
resorts to earning as he knows only the best in his class will succeed otherwise none will. Here comes
the change in dynamics as the rich children know from their seniors that their school does well, finally

2. most of them make sure to wait till the last 3-6months of their educational exam as in that time their
parents will take every necessary steps for ensuring their good results by making sure they follow
their senior’s educational plan or start coaching to every good teacher, resort to guides, have private
tutors and after that most of them fail to get the proper basics as these are mostly result based
education where they never resort to finding out the result by themselves as everything is being
solved by others. On the other hand the only weapon in a poor student’s arsenal is the books and no
money to get the explanations of all the questions in the books, a teacher who is so busy with so
many subjects that he also doesn’t have the time to dig deep into a particular issue of each subject.
And if the teacher starts providing explanations, it will start a chain which he won’t be able to control
for no financial benefit, insecurity of wasting his parent’s money for no reason as even after all this
hard work only a mere few ever succeed from their school. Most start thinking only to ensure a
passing score for a suitable earning source to remove their parents’ burden. So, one is thinking about
getting good results where everything is in a direct result oriented format, question based answers
without the necessity of studying the original materials of the book, and the other only has the book
without the other resources to understand. So, most good students focus on answers or sophisticated
issues of the book as basics normally are not part of the question pattern in finals and the poor
students only have the basics to latch onto as they can’t understand the sophisticated questions. So,
the rich students are avoiding the basics or the entire book as it’s not necessary to get good results
and the poor students don’t want to know much about the basics, as it matters nothing as nothing can
actually make them get good results. Hence, from the poor families who are both educated,
submissive to the seniors or teachers in other words a bit morally flexible has a slight chance of
success which makes them socially smart but a bit less dominant in nature as they are the original
good students who turn out to be government officials due to their devotion to understand. But, in
case of rich students, their teachers find themselves obligated to bring in good results for their
students as they have to ensure a running flow of their income and the reputation of the school which
eventually makes anyone resort to any possible means to make a good student out of a rich student.
Ultimately, most of the poor students end up as dropouts who follow the same nature of their
predecessors by behaving as brutes even after completing a certain portion of formal education only
to be a part of the hive to make sure they can survive among all, educated, less educated everywhere
which makes them more prone to asking then answering by themselves or study further as the
answers also need to be the same to satisfy their masters and exactly as the hive which is his only way
to survive. Finally, all the dropout poor students resort to the idea that education has no value but
experience has as some of their predecessor heroes gained money even after having less education
which they latch onto as their fueling source to happiness that rarely happens. In the case of the rich
students, some get good grades and some entirely hope for a miracle as he knows every miracle can
be performed by his rich dad ending up with bad results. After completing the schooling with good
grades or moderate grades, most rich students normally end up in a more or less decent college either
by talent or by connection. So, they get confident that they will do well in education later on which
makes most of them rebellious in nature, but unfortunately that extrovert nature don’t get noticed by
others as they all are under the impression that this child will do well in future and there is the other
ones who are from poor schools with excellent result, they are the ones who get more focused on
their education with more sincerity, but finds it very difficult to survive among the rich brats as most
of them even after being good students are considered as village idiots. For the miracle seeker rich
students with poor grades, they know that money can manage anything, so education becomes just a

3. promise to keep to their parents as he is destined to spend his father’s money and be the richest man
in the world as education is meaningless for financial success. So, the third group resorts to making
themselves street smart because a businessman needs to be smart and in most cases breaks all ethical
barriers in that stage turning something that no parents or no one wishes to see. However, the rich
good grade holders start the same basic formula that he previously followed in his school which is last
minute education and the poor good grade holders start their same formula which is do anything to
survive. In most cases poor good grade holders do come back pretty strong but some of them also
follow the same path of the bad grade rich kids to be street smart and turn out to be the worst
possible part of the society, capable of doing anything. However, in most cases, the poor good
students get good grades in college, but their parents push so hard which actually breaks their
stamina and rich good students normally end up with a decent result in college but much less than
their previous accomplishment. Normally, most poor good students and a reasonable portion of rich
good students end up in renowned institutes and remaining rich good students and normal students
end up in mediocre institutes. But due to the curse of institutional superiority, many of the poor good
students at the final stage of their education, resort to taking breaks or finding sources of income
rather than focusing on education which makes them end up with bad results or in some cases
derailed paths. However, in this final stage most rich students of renowned institutes and all students
of mediocre institutes turn out to be more focused on education, ensuring closure of their education
by any means possible. But unfortunately, this last part of the effort from the students of mediocre
institutes make them unnoticed due to the educational conception that good students always shine
and mediocre never shine. This same scenario happens throughout the life of those students of
mediocre institutes ending up having mediocre everything in most cases and normally the students of
the good institutes start with good beginnings but lose the morality that he was raised with to engage
themselves in earning money. Finally, the perception has completely changed of the good students as
they have turned themselves more of a money machine then an intellectual person normally ending
up as sophisticated brutes who is more inclined towards money then family and the perception of the
mediocre remains the same even at the pick of their success as nobody normally mentions the success
of any mediocre leaving the similar success of a bright student. Actually, until one has reached the
peak of the society, nobody is considered out of the regular perceptual norm that we are focused on
based on media perception.
